Revealicious - revealing the way you use del.icio.us

Revealicious is a set of graphic visualisations for your del.icio.us account that allow you to browse, search and select tags, as well as viewing posts matching them.

To see Revealicious in action, you can try the demo, or simply login with your del.icio.us user account and password (we do not keep them). Revealicious is made of three different interactive Flash applets that complement each other :

SpaceNav (demo), which allows you to explore the structure of your tags in a rather recreative manner.

TagsCloud (demo), which is an interactive and enhanced version of the tagscloud available in del.icio.us

Grouper (demo), which is an experimental interface for grouping and working with tags.

Revealicious is a graphic design project lead from June to September 2005. It was developed in ActionScript 2.0 using MTASC and SWFMill. Its aim is to demonstrate how using different kind of visualisation can reveal surprising aspects of information. Del.icio.us was chosen as a source of data because of the unformalised semantic richness of its tag system, and of course, because it is a cool project, for which we wanted to contribute !

Revealicious is still an experiment, which means that features and usage are quite basic, and maybe sometimes buggy. However, as an experiment, Revealicious should be considered as a step towards richer, more interactive user interface and information visualisations.
